Was a 98 SOHC turbo, running t25 DSM turbo at 10psi, approx 200hp

The Ride


Then disaster struck! AHHHH threw a rod :-(


The new powerplant! approx 200k on it


New goodies!! lookin for 350-400 hp



cp 9:1 pistons
Eagel ESP rods
60 trim turbo
fully balanced crank
hondata s200
spec 6 pucker.....all the goodies

EJ8 GSR-T

oh damn sorry about the crazy pic sizes!

drintegra

damn what happened?? Besides boost

EJ8 GSR-T

eh, stupid shop did the turbo install, i guess to much boost (sometimes it would creep to 12psi) and a bad tune

too bad about your old engine, but out with the old and in with the new....the GSR build should be a hell of a lot more fun anyway!

the d16y blocks are pretty notorious for throwing rods or moreover spinning bearings, one of my neighbors did it at like 6k rpms. either way, sorry to hear it.

you will be 100x more happy with the dohcvtec. i went from a sohcvtec turbo to an ls turbo and it was decent improvement. from that i went to a lsvtec turbo and it was night and day over the ls. your build looks good, im sure you will enjoy it

Hahaha i hope thats not the result from shitty fuel management. I See you invested in Hondta, wise choice. What were u previously running on the turbod16?

EJ8 GSR-T

chrome on a chipped p28, stock fuel pump and s2000 injectors....on a **** street tune....probably why the motor blew
